The Bulk Rise

1. After you have stretched and folded the dough for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hour, it’s time for the bulk rise.
2. Next, ensure the bowl is covered loosely with a kitchen towel.
3. Then, let the bread dough bulk rise for 12+ hours, on the counter.
   • Note: The bread should double in size.
4. Finally, once the loaf has bulked, it will be ready to laminate!

Lamination with Everything Bagel Seasoning

1. First, remove the bulked Sourdough Loaf with Everything Bagel Seasoning dough and place it on the kitchen counter.
2. Next, flatten the dough into a rectangular shape (or as best as you can get it).
3. Then, sprinkle 1 to 2 tbsp. of Everything Bagel Seasoning onto the dough; gently press it into the dough.
4. Next, bring the edges of the dough into the center and press the seam together to “seal it.”
5. Then, sprinkle 1 tbsp. of Everything Bagel Seasoning onto the seam of the dough.
6. Finally, starting with one side of the dough, roll it into a ball. Smooth it by kneading and rolling it on the kitchen counter.

The Third Rise

1. Once the dough is re-rolled into a ball, place it back into the ceramic, glass, or Banneton Bowl.
2. Next, cover the dough loosely with a kitchen towel.
3. Then, preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Place a Dutch Oven or Bread Pan into the oven to preheat.
4. Finally, let the Sourdough Loaf with Everything Bagel Seasoning rise for an additional 30 minutes.

Scoring and Baking the Sourdough Loaf with Everything Bagel Seasoning

1. First, place the risen Sourdough Loaf with Everything Bagel Seasoning onto a lightly floured sheet of parchment paper.
2. Next, using a sharp pairing knife or Bread Lame, score the bread with one deep cut and any other design you’d like.
   • Note: The one deep cut allows the dough to steam and bake evenly.
3. Then, remove the preheated Dutch Oven or Bread Pan.
4. Next, carefully place the scored Sourdough Loaf with Everything Bagel Seasoning into the Dutch Oven or Bread Pan.
5. Then, bake the bread, covered, for 25 minutes at 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
6. Next, remove the lid and drop the temperature of the oven to 435 degrees Fahrenheit.
7. Then, bake the bread, uncovered, for an additional 20 minutes.
8. Finally, remove the baked loaf and place it on a wire rack to cool to room temperature.

Serving and Storing the Sourdough Loaf with Everything Bagel Seasoning

1. First, once the bread has cooled to room temperature, use a Serrated Knife and cut into the center of the bread.

3. Then, serve the Sourdough Loaf with Everything Bagel Seasoning as is or with butter.
4. Finally, to store the bread, I would recommend slicing the entire loaf and then freezing the slices in a Ziploc bag for up to 3 months. Place the slices of bread in the toaster to reheat.
